In the usual usage such as
ContourPlot[x y, {x, 0, 1}, {y, 0, 1}, ColorFunction -> "GrayTones"]

This is a compact notation for the more explicit ColorData function
ColorData["GrayTones"][x] where 0<x<1.
I, in this example...

ContourPlot[x y, {x, 0, 1}, {y, 0, 1},
 ColorFunction -> (ColorData["GrayTones"][#] &)]

You can reverse that with
ContourPlot[x y, {x, 0, 1}, {y, 0, 1},
 ColorFunction -> (ColorData["GrayTones"][1-#] &)]
